The gothic horror tabletop role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade owes a lot to Anne Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles, including the structure of vampiric society, the types of powers vampires can inherit from their makers, and the sleeping ancient vampires that might end the world if they ever woke up. White Wolf will be revealing a new version at Gen Con in July, but the game’s current publisher, Renegade Game Studios, is going to give Vampire: The Masquerade some competition by launching a BackerKit campaign in the fall to fund a TTRPG based on Anne Rice’s Immortal Universe.
